You have to shop around and compare apples to apples.

To the same degree the power company, water company, bank, Apple, Microsoft, Verizon, Amazon, insurance company, Lowes, the post office, IRS, and the possum that lives in the woods behind my house like me. 

Some major manufacturers and retailers -- including Microsoft, Apple and Walmart -- have already warned of disrupted supply chains, and have lowered guidance (or implied it) for 2Q20. 

Not that they don’t do things wrong, and that there aren’t bad apples out there, but part of that is up to you.

Even before the pandemic, less burdensome taxes in Texas drew huge tech companies like Tesla, Oracle, Facebook, Apple and Google — and their employees — to Austin, Texas.

There are always pockets in neighborhood that are good and bad, sometimes 2 houses on a block are rotten apples and the rest of the block is fantastic.I would drive around and get a feel of your desired area's.   

A colloquial expression of false equivalency is "comparing apples and oranges".If one of the causes of death you listed was a highly infectious virus that is brand new to the human population, that we have no vaccine for, that was spreading at a rapid rate with death rates nearly doubling every day in hot spot areas, then it would be comparable.

Or Apple?

Almost none of it apples to me or my goals.

So, while I can not speak to what goes on in the so-called “hood” I can say we have some bad apples up here in the ‘burbs.
